Yeah. Thanks for that. You saved Notty some trauma.

Uh. I didn't earn this, but once I was mech cleared accidentally, I didn't make any serious mistakes to cause people to doubt it. A toast to mediocrity everywhere.

Also, why. Don't be sad or upset. That was the definition of a blindside mech clear. It had nothing to do with skill or being pocketed/fooled.

The sheer amount of minigame I built into A Midsummer Night's Dream was insane.

I will never design a large theme with this many moving parts again.

I also will NEVER do so much bbcode formatting in the flavor/mod posts again. It was a nightmare.

Also, Wisdom is honorary scum. Just iso him this game, he was loving every second of his role.
I hated it when I was fake catching up. I kept having to delete posts hating on Wisdom because it would show I was lacking focus lol.

Once you're vanilized you don't get your abilities back

Or, if you do, Lover status should also have returned...seen their lover dead... and killed Bell.

You can't do one and not the other?

That would be the reasonable assumption to make, but it was actually a gold ability.

Vanilizations blank your role PM. Gold Abilities should ALSO have been removed.

I don't mean to be salty, this was a fun game and I appreciate you modding Ffery.

I'm just not okay with those moderation decisions, I think. Not a big deal, still had fun, just.... bitter taste.

Dunn and enchant I don't think I have seen anything from
No, I am also a bodyguard. I had to pick someone by EoD 1 to protect for the rest of the game. My gold ability was a potion that allows me to choose other people to protect. I was able to buy the potion last night.

Myself:
In post 2343, Pavowski wrote:Okay, you guys are ready to run me up. Cool cool cool.

Might as well claim.

I'm Oberon's Flower. I make people fall in love. 'Twas I who loverized Galron and Icebox. I had a good scumread on Galron and I was nullish at best on Icebox after d1 (townier since then!). Several of you expressed that loverizing seemed like a scum ability; maybe it usually is (this is my first game with the mechanic), but this time it isn't. I had an ability and didn't want to die with it in my pocket. I do not know why they subsequently fell out of love, but something must have happened to nullify it because my ability was still "spent".

I can loverize again if the opportunity arises for me to repurchase the ability, but it hasn't come up yet, so I'm a vanilla townie right now. As such I do make sense as an elimination target, as until something unforeseen happens, I can't add any intel or affect the game in any meaningful way. I can think of one pair I'm curious to loverize if given the chance, but who knows if that'll happen or if you will let me live that long.

Anyway, watch the vote counts. There is opportunism afoot.

And I wrote you guys a damn sonnet, too.

Probably done posting for tonight!

In post 3197, Bowser Jr. wrote:We post restricted Pav last Night which is confirmed by the fact that we have a neighborhood with him today. (Lukewarm I believe confirmed we claimed this ability in the neighborhood Day 2 and Bell/Pav should be able to vouch).

Since our PR is confirmed, the only way we're scum is if we are able to target four different players (two loverize, one NK, one post restriction) in one Night phase which is kinda laughable?

Like I guess it's technically possible but notty says that would be awkward game design and I believe him obvi :P

In post 3199, Bowser Jr. wrote:If we targeted Oberon's Flower, we get a neighborhood with them.

If we targeted Titania, we got vanillaized, with the option to buy one more shot of the PR ability with 5 coins. We had to pay coins in order to learn this information.

It costs 5 gold to remove that part (which I have bought)

Be great in act, as you have been in thought.

Take pains. Be perfect.: Should you lose any abilities you may buy one 1-shot ability back. The cost is 6 gold coins


Icebox had a meme ability, where they could target a player each night, but had no idea what would happen, and there was the interaction with Puck if Puck targeted them.

In the posts wall the role PMs, the hidden parts of each role, if it had hidden parts is described. The role copy was a sort of punishment for town claiming unnecessarily. In the case of the loverize that didn't quite work it made sense for Pav to explain what he knew about what happened, but it opened up one of the more useful to scum roles to copy.

Acknowledged!
Thou hast learned wondrous things about thy ability:

Shouldst thou target Oberon's Flower, thou shalt gain a neighborhood with them.

Shouldst thou target Titania, thou shalt lose thy ability and become naught but a vanilla player, though thou hast the option to buy one more shot for
5 gold coins
.
This was information we learned about our role. Note that if we targeted Titania we would be vanillized and have the option to buy a shot of our ability again for five coins.

I assume Bell becoming vanilla gave him this same opportunity. So I don't think this is an error.
